I just took action to save my local public media stations!

As a proud member of the UAW and having served as an elected leader of the AFL-CIO ours is a history that I am very grateful for and proud of.

[AFL-CIO ✊ @AFLCIO]

On this day 69 years ago, in a historic move that changed the course of the labor movement, the American Federation of Labor and the Congress of Industrial Organizations, the two largest labor federations, merged to form the AFL-CIO.

Happy Founding Day!

Now it's official: President Biden has pardoned his son Hunter.

“Today, I signed a pardon for my son Hunter. From the day I took office, I said I would not interfere with the Justice Department’s decision-making, and I kept my word even as I have watched my son being selectively, and unfairly, prosecuted Without aggravating factors like use in a crime, multiple purchases, or buying a weapon as a straw purchaser, people are almost never brought to trial on felony charges solely for how they filled out a gun form. Those who were late paying their taxes because of serious addictions, but paid them back subsequently with interest and penalties, are typically given non-criminal resolutions. It is clear that Hunter was treated differently. 

The charges in his cases came about only after several of my political opponents in Congress instigated them to attack me and oppose my election. Then, a carefully negotiated plea deal, agreed to by the Department of Justice, unraveled in the court room – with a number of my political opponents in Congress taking credit for bringing political pressure on the process. Had the plea deal held, it would have been a fair, reasonable resolution of Hunter’s cases.   

No reasonable person who looks at the facts of Hunter’s cases can reach any other conclusion than Hunter was singled out only because he is my son – and that is wrong. There has been an effort to break Hunter – who has been five and a half years sober, even in the face of unrelenting attacks and selective prosecution. In trying to break Hunter, they’ve tried to break me – and there’s no reason to believe it will stop here. Enough is enough. 

For my entire career I have followed a simple principle: just tell the American people the truth. They’ll be fair-minded. Here’s the truth: I believe in the justice system, but as I have wrestled with this, I also believe raw politics has infected this process and it led to a miscarriage of justice – and once I made this decision this weekend, there was no sense in delaying it further. I hope Americans will understand why a father and a President would come to this decision.”

Being resentful alone makes you bitter.

Being resentful with your coworkers makes you an organizing committee.

Form a union!

To all the people saying Democrats aren’t fighting,

Watch Senator Schumer ram judges through like an auctioneer on a mission to earn the commission of his life and Senator Klobuchar meeting his energy 🔥

This is civil rights attorney Amir Ali. He was just confirmed by the U.S. Senate as the first Arab American to serve on the U.S. Federal District Court for Washington D.C. This is President Biden’s 220th judicial appointment.

RETWEET to congratulate Judge Ali on making history!
